    Dear BP,
    Please increase the manure storage capacity to 1000 from the current max 300.
    This can be done by
    1)Unlock in the Tree of Wisdom by using the stars we have to increase from max 300 to max 1000.
    Or
    2) Separate the capacity storage between the Bahamarama and the main farm. Max to store in main farm and Bahamarama is 500 each. Total will be max 1000. :);)

    From our current max total 300 really not enough to store the manure produced from the current increasing of so many old and new animal pens we have in our farms. The new animal pens are increasing and the farms size also increasing through the years but the manure capacity still the same since year one. How are we going to store our manure? Either we break the manure storage or we simply throw away our manure. xD
    Please be considerable. :oops::oops::oops:

    There is no max, I read on here some where that there is no max, you can have 50k manure but if you clean stalls you don't get any if your at the max 300/600 I had 3200 some before. This is what you can do to store it up get your max then set the highest price and keep doing that 20 of course then cancel all 20 and you can have tons. Note I have also bought a stack in the marker with 2250 amount. I thought I lost money with that deal but nope I have them all 2250.

    Neily35 the original poster is talking about being able to store more manure that she has produced herself. You can go over the max but only if you buy it. You can't go over the max if you're producing it by cleaning out stalls...if you're already at your max, and you clean out stalls, the new manure is lost. That's why it would be nice to have a higher max...so we can store more of the manure from our animals.

    Yes but I said in my post you can put your max in the market just set it to the highest price so no one will buy it. up to 20 times.

    can only list manure in batches of no more than 100 now, cant store more than 2000 anymore. so you will have to store 19 and leave one open to sell extra manure.

    why they put it to 100. so you can only sell 100 at each per now. you can't sell 600's anymore.... where is the dislike button.

    I am really peeved that we can't store as much manure as we like - it was so much better for the brief time it was allowed, why did that have to be changed back again - it makes no sense to me at all. Really unhappy with this. >:(>:(. To make it worse I hadn't seen the small notice of the change and was trying to buy more manure but got the pop up saying I couldn't ! :oops: The only plus side seems to be that manure is cheap again between events.....

    yea and now instead only being 40 stacks or so now there is like 180 100's stacks of manure. Yes I like to stock up to but now you can't.

    I wish we still had unlimited manure storage ,,,, i used to buy 20k or so of it ..... sit on it use it for a full event ..... a few events .... now i can only store 300 units .... thats only 1 field and a few left over ... not even enough to do all my grounds once .... so is more or less useless ....

    Since one of the benefits of the premium packages is to have your manure storage amount doubled, I don't see them expanding it in game any time soon. I don't buy the packages myself but if I had I would not be happy for them to suddenly extend that benefit to all. Other than the extra party spin it's the single biggest benefit of the silver package, makes perfect sense to me why they took away the unlimited amount of manure that could be bought in the market. Why would anyone buy that package if they could get unlimited manure with CC's? Not saying I like it but I see BP's reasoning behind the change.

    I understand BP's reasoning too LDCrow but surely they were aware that this would be an issue before they gave us unlimited manure ? It is always a mistake to give something and then take it away as it makes people disgruntled. I think that more thought should be given by the developers to the effect of changes they decide to make, as this is not an isolated case and sometimes it seems as if BP only think of those who pay the most.

    with this 300 or 600 max capacity i can see manure get close to 1000cc during long crop events. might take a couple events for the big players to go through all their built up stock.

    feelfree- we've had the 300/600 capacity since I started playing and manure never approaches that high event during events.

    I did not stockpile manure above my capacity since any additional disappeared if you harvested your stables. I spend the majority of the time in between events doing animal husbandry.

    The thing I don't quite understand is why we are now limited to only selling in lots of 100? What was wrong with going back to how it was since they went back to our original capacity? Why can we not sell our piles up to capacity?

    I have no problem with removing the unlimited capacity, like pnp I never went above my limit. I hate that I can't buy or sell in lots of bigger than 100 - what possible benefit does that have to anyone? It just means I have to endlessly click if I want to buy manure to cover my fields.>:(

    @pnp: Because some players complained at the large quantities they couldn't buy. It is probably annoying if your manure pile only takes 100. But that's an incentive to work on the rune and increase the capacity, isn't it? Sometimes the first few pages would be filled with 600 unit offers that only premium players could buy. But I never found it to be a big problem. And the premium players pay/paid for that (I am not one of them by the way). Now the benefit of the doubled manure pile is certainly much reduced.

    Since this is the suggestion section: I suggest to change it back to how it worked originally.

    I agree with the suggestion of changing it back to how it was. Since this is the suggestion thread as Mir reminded me, I will refrain from a discussion/opinion on the unhappy players.

    I totally agree with adeline because I'm thinking of the younger players. They don't have trophies built up to 30%. They don't have millions of cc's to spend on manure. They don't have nice long crops that will yield the horridly high demands for drops that the events have. To complete the drop demands of the last quest I needed to plant hazelnuts for days. The young don't have that option. They have to do twice the work with half the resources. The rune for larger manure pile is at the bottom of the tree and the stars demanded for it are relatively [for the runes] low. It is possible for lower players to expand their piles to 1000 without an extrodinary effort.
    Let the manure pile be raised to 1000 for regular players and 2000 for premimum. Then everyone wins.
    If anyone thinks 1000 is too high please calculate how much poo you need for 3 fields of 1x1's... and that's not even counting baha. For events that demand long hours of crops [which still don't yield the needed drops] people need manure just to finish the event, let alone plant the long crops needed for drops. People can't plant some fields and have other fields devoted to orange chicken coops. The young players have no orange chicken coops.
    Lets make the game fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    If people don't find it challenging enough they are more then welcome to challenge themselves however they want... do an event with no poo, or no water or only plant every other day... But lets make it as reasonable as possible for people that try so very hard to finish an event to not come up short of drops.
    Thank you and have a nice day!

    We've all seen the changes to manure in the last few months play havoc with the market. I too think the system should simply be changed back to the original system, which seemed to work.

    Limiting manure sales to 100 per lot is inconsistent with the rest of the market. There isn't a separate limit on any other item other than the maximim lot of 9,999 for all items. Manure, like other saleable items, should be limited to the sellers/buyers growing capacity.

    I understand it's frustrating to young players to see a lot of 600 manure and not be able to afford it. There are also large lots of longer growing plants listed at very expensive prices, yet there isn't a cap put on spelt or carnations. If I don't want to spend large amounts of CC on a product, I buy a smaller lot. As simple as that. Once players build their CC's, they have more flexibility. It just takes time and patience.

    It's also frustrating to scroll through 50 lots of 1 to find a larger amount of a product to buy, yet there is no minimum quantity criteria for sales. At the end of the day, you can't please everyone all of the time. Changes that are reactive to complaints without careful consideration to the big picture often cause more disruption than originally anticipated. Let's hope BP will reconsider this market inconsistency and either revert back to the original system or think of a solution that will meet both younger and "senior" players halfway...

    I agree with having a larger supply of manure and separate piles for the island and main farm. The water is separate, why not the poo? :oops:

    I don't have a problem with the suggestion of separate manure piles for main and island but would want the main pile to be larger just because the main farm has more fields.
